I know we're all speculating but I think the watermark will be a tasteful "Ex Libris" patch on the title page.

As to the WSJ thing, I really doubt the FBI and MI5 will go on "potter patrol" to hunt granny down for having an illegal copy of Goblet of Fire. My grandchildren's granny would do all she could to correct them if they showed up with any sort of stolen property. Frankly, I haven't trusted the WSJ as much since they became part of the Merdock empire. Their speculation may prove no more accurate than the USA Today article yesterday claiming Pottermore was a kind of Scavenger Hunt.

We'll all have to wait to know for sure but I think this will truly mark a turning point with the most valuable book series published essentially DRM free.

Too good to be true? Maybe. We'll see.
